Yes, I guess I should have been more specific about this. The real
"Isla de Pascua" (a quite literal translation of "Easter Island")
apparently does not have many trees, as I learned here, just like you
do now.. ;-)

Does anyone here know *why* there are so few trees?

And since at least one person in this thread has found a statue
(upturned), I wonder if should be called Easter Egg Island?

Sometimes I crack myself up.
